Lubrication Training

Knowledge-based lubrication and applied tribology help clients to prevent machine downtime due to poor choice of lubricants or inadequate lubrication…

More than half of all mechanical failures occur because of poor choice of lubricants and/or improper lubrication. These failures can be quite costly because they result in loss of production and shorten the machine life.

EIS’ trained technical experts teach class participants the fundamentals of lubricants and machine lubrication, correct fluid selection, the role proper lubrication methods play in ensuring more reliable machinery, how to monitor, read and interpret the oil analysis reports before component failures can occur and much more. With more trained staff on board, our clients are able to increase productivity and keep their operations running smoothly.

Topics covered in our training classes include:

• Fundamental of machine lubrication
• Proper choice of lubricants
• Understanding various lubrication methods
• Base oil types
• Performance additives and functions
• Lubricants compatibility
• Grease selection criteria
• Synthetics vs. conventional lubricants
• Oil analysis methods and how to interpret the data
• Proper lubricants storage and handling

All of our lubrication training classes are taught by seasoned technical staff in an interactive manner, which helps class participants take active part in the training and gives them the opportunity to discuss their specific issues with their classmates.
